sUMMER CAMPS

2026

Ascension Volleyball Summer Camps are designed to provide children and youth with an engaging, challenging, and supportive volleyball experience that fosters athletic, social, and personal growth both on and off the court. Athletes are grouped into two training environments based on age, experience, and developmental goals to ensure a positive, progressive, and empowering experience for every participant.

Our Ages 7-15 Camp introduces and develops volleyball skills through movement, coordination, teamwork, gameplay, and foundational technical development within a fun, active, and encouraging environment.

Our High Performance Camp is designed for athletes seeking to elevate their performance through advanced volleyball systems, strength and conditioning, mental skills training, nutrition education, and sport science concepts that support complete athlete development.

Across both groups, athletes will develop volleyball-specific skills such as serving, passing, setting, hitting, blocking, digging, movement patterns, and reading/responding to game situations. Throughout the full-week camp experience, athletes will engage in structured daily training blocks, gameplay activities, mentorship opportunities, and collaborative learning environments that progressively build confidence, skill development, teamwork, and personal growth over the course of each 9:00 AM–4:00 PM training day.

At Ascension Volleyball, we believe sport is about more than isolated physical performance. Our camps interweave character development, leadership, emotional intelligence, growth mindset, and positive communication into the training environment to help athletes become stronger teammates, learners, and individuals. Through interactive drills, gameplay, mentorship, and supportive coaching, participants will have opportunities to apply their skills in both competitive and collaborative environments while building confidence, friendships, and a deeper love for the game.
